Review of Conan the Barbarian (2011) by Mako_Psy — 21 Sep 2013
It just felt like one long action sequence. And a boring one at that. There was virtually no tension throughout the whole film, mainly because we’re told how it would all end quite early on through a monk’s foretelling of the future.
But even if this scene didn’t exist, it would still be devoid of tension, since none of the character’s are developed enough to care about. Also, the romance between Conan and whatever her name, felt like a forced cliché.
Ultimately this film was quite disappointing. It had all the potential for a nice little reboot, something fresh and entertaining. But it ended up just feeling like a long string of tired clichés.
